After yet another Windows-related disaster yesterday from which I am still not recovered (I may well end up needing to do a complete reinstall), I'm about ready to give Linux a shot. At the very least, as part of a dual boot system. I am aware there are many different flavors of Linux. From what I can tell, most of the differences don't concern me at all, and the path of least resistance overall would seem to be Ubuntu.
But I'm wondering if there are any MuseScore-specific reasons to choose something else. Like if it's easier to set up a build environment in some other version. I'm told there is one particular distro that is especially well set up for audio but I don't remember which, nor do I know if it would really matter. Also, it appears Ubuntu may have issues with my particular wireless adapter, so I may be forced to look at other options anyhow. I also of course welcome any general advice on making the switch. I used to be pretty comfortable with Unix, like back in the 80's/90's, but that was like a different lifetime. I'm already running virtually all Linux-compatible open source software, so there are very few applications I'll need to make any sort of major readjustment for. -- View this message in context: http://dev-list.musescore.org/Linux-recommendation-for-MuseScore-tp7578457.html Sent from the MuseScore Developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
